childminder costs

[Ms Ryder]

Hi there,

I haven't used a childminder since 2007 and wondered what the going rates are nowadays, has anyone any idea? Turns out we can't afford a nanny :(

thanks

Ours charges ?5 per hour

We pay 50 per day including meals, anything from 45-70 seems normal...

I've been quoted much higher prices recently... had hoped ?55-?60 a day would still do :(

[pebbles]

?5 an hour as well. Food included

Sounds quite low for ED, I pay that in surrey (not in a particularly commutable area) for CM with just her own children and mine, no other mindees.
